Revolgy enters North American market with innovative cloud solutions for gaming studios

November 9, 2023

The gaming industry is undergoing a profound transformation with the emergence of cloud gaming. This technology allows users to play high-end games on any device without the need for expensive hardware.

The North American market is expected to be one of the largest and fastest-growing, with an expected growth from US$1.42bn in 2023 to US$5.89bn by 2027, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 42.71%. The market is expected to reach 76.8m users by 2027.

To help gaming studios maximize the opportunity of this growing trend, Revolgy has entered the North American market with expertise in infrastructure design and migration to the cloud and building your gaming studio directly in the cloud.

Challenges and opportunities of the growing market

The growth is driven by several factors, including the increasing popularity of mobile gaming, the expanding availability of high-speed internet, and the rising cost of gaming hardware.

While the market is booming, some challenges still need to be addressed before it can reach its full potential. One challenge is the lack of awareness of cloud gaming among consumers. Many are still not aware of cloud gaming or how it works.

Another challenge is the need for high-speed internet access. Cloud gaming requires a fast and reliable internet connection to work properly, which might not be true for all users.

Finally, the cloud gaming market is still relatively new, with several different platforms available, which can confuse users when choosing the right platform.

Cloud gaming has benefits for both studios and players

For studios:

Optimized and reduced costs: Cloud gaming eliminates the need for studios to develop and maintain their own infrastructure, which can save them significant time and money.
No need to maintain hardware: Since you have everything on the cloud, purchasing anything is unnecessary, instantly saving you money.
Expanded reach: Cloud gaming allows studios to reach a wider audience, including players on mobile devices and other devices that cannot run high-end games natively.
Improved quality: Cloud gaming can help studios enhance the quality of their games by providing them with access to powerful hardware and resources.
Faster time to market: Cloud gaming can help studios get their games to market faster by eliminating the need to develop and maintain their own infrastructure.

For players:

Convenience: Cloud gaming allows players to play high-end games on any device without purchasing expensive hardware.
Affordability: Cloud gaming subscriptions are typically more affordable than purchasing a new gaming console or PC.
Access to a wider library of games: Cloud gaming platforms typically offer a more exhaustive game library than gaming consoles or PCs.
